Mi dispiace. It is not every day that I speak to someone inside of a... a... what is this?

Judging by your dress and accent, something that won't be invented for quite a while.

[There's a pause, as though he's considering leaving it just at that, before he continues as though on a whim.]

It's a communication device. It allows us to speak across great distances. There should be a little glass bubble just above the screen; that's capturing your image.

[A frown. She doesn't know whether or not to be offended by that first comment.]

Ah, I see... [She pokes at said glass bubble. How strange.]

Maybe you can provide me with an explanation, then. What is this place?

[He grins, more cocky than cheerful.]

The Underworld as envisioned by the Greeks. A variation on Erebus, if you're up on your classics. Head up the hill a ways and you'll find the most lively city of the dead you're ever likely to see.

I have heard of these stories once before, as a child. [She returns that cocky smirk of his with one of her own.] A place where the dead walk... I will have to see it with my own eyes.

Ah, well. There's where we get to the sticky part. You'll have plenty of time to see every nook and cranny. There isn't a way out.

It is a prison, then.

With everything that entails, and the inventiveness of gods fueling it.

But, if it's any consolation, you actually might be one of the few living mortals to see this place. Congratulations.

[She snorts.]

Then I should consider myself lucky, if I can consider myself living.

Terribly lucky. Rumour has it the god of the dead plays quite rough with those he claims. [It is offered in the manner of a half-amused observation. The sky is blue, rain is wet, the gods are dicks.]

You say that as if you've experienced it first-hand.

Sorry to disappoint. If I'd experienced it first-hand, it wouldn't be rumour.

Of course, the gods in general seem to love their little games, so it's not that surprising.

It doesn't take long to notice the pattern. If there's been a week of quiet, that only means a storm's well on its way.

[A snort.]

I shall take that as a piece of advice, considering I have already been warned about what is happening.
